A defendant who uses force or deadly force that is justified in Chapter 9, Penal Code, is immune from civil liability for personal injury or death that results from the defendant's use of force or deadly force, as applicable.
I like Florida's civil immunity better. If you are sued and win because you were engaged in self-defense/defense of another, you are entitled to reasonable legal fees, including income compensation.
Good luck getting paid by the family that would sue you for killing their little murderer.

I like your thinking... but...
You can see you and get awarded money from an indigent all you want. Doesn’t mean you’ll see a dime!
